I did not say it sounded better or worse than anything else ,just that it sounded fantastic. I didn't do an A/B comparison since I am too lazy and would probably do it wrong any way wink . I just wanted a pre/pro rather than a receiver acting as a pre/pro and am fortunate enough to be able to afford a change. As for the all amps ,receivers etc sound the same controversy there are plenty of people over at AVS who would love to argue that matter until the cows come home.

Its a slippery slope. I just like all my pretty blue lights smile
My hearing is ruined so I just stay out of that conversation. I can still enjoy music , but I doubt it sounds as good to others as I think it does .

No, all amplifiers don't "sound the same"; all competently designed amplifiers operated within their designed power limits have no "sound".

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

John K:

I couldn't agree more.

I hear no difference between my modern tube amp & my SS Receiver. Since I'm not running at disco levels, I've never pushed either beyond their limits...

FWIW this is not an amp ,nor does it have an amp. Not sure how this got started into the All Amps sound the same conversation any way. frown
